New verizon curve 8330 missing browser

Hi,
This may sound like s dumb question, so my apologies. I just activated my new (well old, but new to me) Verizon Curve 8330 and it does not have a browser app. I tried to go to opera to send me a download link, but even with that I can't get my phone to go to it. I did perform a security wipe before I activated it. I can't seem to find a browser to download to my computer to install through the desktop manager either. What am I missing?
Thanks,
Solved!

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Are you sure your data plan is in place? How did you activate it?
Lets try this:At the home screen go to the connection icon,click on it,
and go to service status, click on it, menu key, select diagnostic test, select
run. In the course of the test the phone your data access will be checked and
a registration request will be sent. After the test completes you can read the categories
and see if a PIN test worked, and registration request was sent successfully.
If the test fails I would call the carrier and have them verify you plan,
If the test is successful they the following:
Go to options/ advanced options, Host Routing Tables, click to enter. DO NOT click on any listing.
Press menu key, and select register now.
You will get a verification email. Then go to email settings and send service books.
You will get an confirmation of setup for each email account.
After this is complete, do a battery pull to reset the device.
Let us know now it goes!
Thanks,

I would like to suggest a Verizon-specific forum for Mac-users

Verizon is the largest provider of wireless and other related solutions. When I have problems with my Mac or supporting services I am consistently able to find solutions on either the Mac or Verizon forums. However, this takes quite a bit of effort to locate the right answer for my problem. And, this takes a lot of time.
I would like to harness solutions for Mac-users who are Verizon customers all in one place. This could make it easier for Mac-users to get quick answers. This could also be a great referral point for Verizon as it sorts out answers/solutions for Mac users.
Currently, Verizon hears from less than .05% of its customers that there are any issues of compatibility, less access to great services, needs for solutions for Mac. However Mac users represent at least 20% of computer users around the US. On the one hand you can infer that there are issues with less than .05% of the Mac universe or, on the other hand, you can infer that many just don't go to Verizon for the solutions.
I am not sure which is right. I just know that having solutions in one place, my Mac home, would be useful. I hope you will consider the idea.
I do realize no forums are dedicated to any one provider. However, Verizon, again, is the biggest provider. Maybe this is worthy of a forum.

It is about the level of question involved and some may already get answered in the "Getting On Line" and similar forums already here.

Curve 8330 is not recognized by Desktop Manager.... Please help.

I brought home my 8330 and downloaded the Desktop manager (v4.7). After many attempts for my phone to show that the USB was staying connected, my Desktop Manager still refuses to recongize that my phone is connected. I am lost as to what to do next. I have had v4.5 and then tried v4.7. Can anyone offer and help/suggestions?

Wiping corporate bb Curve 8330 for personal use

Hey guys,
So a friend of my father's passed on his BB Curve to me after I lost a phone. I'm just realizing it's set for corporate use so I can't set up a personal email or download certain apps I want. I have performed a wipe of the phone already, but all it did was delete the previous owner's information and things, not reset the phone to factory settings.
Is there a way to make this phone work for my personal use? Or do I just make do for now? Thanks so much in advance!

So, while this was all very helpful, I realized if I called a Verizon store and gave them my phone number and account password, they could re-set it over the phone for me in about 3 seconds...
Thanks anyway!

Curve 8330 will not sync with desktop manager after 4.5 OS upgrade

Last time I connected to the desktop manager, it asked me to upgrade to 4.5. I thought, why not? So I did. Since then, I can no longer use the Google Sync for calendar and contacts as it stopped working immedately afterwards.
I realized I need to get my contacts updated on my phone, and my calendar corrected so I tried to sync to the desktop.
The phone is no longer being recognized by the system. This is since the updated. I have downloaded the USB / Modem drivers again but haven't installed / reinstalled them yet.
I was hoping it was maybe a simple fix?
I'm running Win XP Professional SP 3. I am using 4.7 of the Desktop manager. (Worked fine before OS upgrade)
If I haven't given enough details to help, please let me know.
Thanks!

natattack06 yes it should also help you as well.... basically any 5xx error
gallhiser you should still try repairing yours, might be able to sell it and make back some money

Verizon Curve 8330 speaker

Whenever I get a message, either email or MMS, that plays a sound, my speaker for the phone stops working. The only way to correct the problem is to remove the battery and restart it. I have replaced it at the Verizon store once already. They were not surprised when I told them of the problem.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to correct this problem? Thanks in advance for the help.

So it just wont work again, or wont play that sound?
If someone helped you give them kudos. Research all info!

Curve 8330 running VERY slowly (hourglass)

So I've had my Curve 8330 for almost a year and a half now and it was served me very weel, but lately when using certain Apps, the hourglass will rear its ugly head and NEVER dissappear. I end up having to pull the battery and wait the 5 minutes for it to restart... this is happening more and more. I have freed up plenty of memory (file free is usually over 28MB). The Apps it seems to have trouble with are (mainly) Blackberry App World, UberTwitter, and Audible... It's running as if there is no free memory... when there is clearly a TON of free memory... whats the deal??? Thank you so much in advance =)

Help: Syncing Curve 8330 with Mac OS 10.4!

Hi... I posted something months ago, but never got an answer -- and REALLY need to fix this!
Got Curve 8330s for my mother and myself in 08/2009 -- I have a PC, she has a Mac with OS 10.4 (Tiger). She has NEVER been able to sync her BB with her Mac. Pocket Mac didn't work, so she never got her contacts from her Yahoo account into her Curve, then DTM (finally) came out -- but since she doesn't have the right OS, we can't install that.
So...
1) Can we do anything, short of spending another $500 to upgrade her OS to Snow Leopard? (Oh yeah, she'd need to get more RAM at the same time to make that work... this just keeps getting better.)
2) Is DTM for Macs still wiping everyone's BlackBerrys? Has this been fixed? Or is this all a big waste of time?
Needless to say, we're both quite unhappy to have spent so much time and effort on this (I'm her de facto IT person), especially after purchasing the devices and contracts so recently. And I'm having my own issues over on the PC side.
We don't WANT iPhones. We LIKE Verizon, and love having each having a BB -- but as others have said, it would be nice to make them actually talk to our computers... and we can't shell out any more money at all right now.
Thanks in advance for your help! And how do we actually get RIM to do anything about this issue?

How did you come up with $500? Is your friend on an intel mac? If it is intel mac, the upgrade to SL is about $30. The cost of ram is <$100.

Blackberry Curve 8330 vs Droid 2

So I'm heavily considering trading in my Blackberry Curve 8330 for a new Droid 2. Was wondering if anyone else recently made the switch and can shar their experiences/opinions.
I like my Blackberry a lot, but it looks like there is a lot more stuff I can do with the Droid 2. My biggest concern is that I have read a lot of comments saying that the service/reception is kind of Shotty on teh Droid 2 and people are having reception and dropped call issues.
Overall I would say I am pretty happy with Verizon service when it comes to coverage area and reception (at least with my Blackberry), so I am compelled to beleive that the issue is with the Droid 2 phone itself.
Would love to hear others opinions on this topic.
Thanks!

I got a Droid 2 last week and had the original Droid before that. I taught my Mom how to use a Blackberry last year (8900). Based on that I can say that the Droid 2 is a highly functional phone, especially from a email and internet, especially internet standpoint. The pages load in 5 - 15 seconds depending on web density. Its nearly laptop fast. I know the brower on Blackberry's is weak to say the least. The camera is excellent and you can take video with it too. From a communications standpoint it's outstanding. It's very easy to take a picture of something and with the click of 1 button, you can email it to anyone, post it on facebook or myspace or anywhere you like. I like that functionality a lot. The best way I can describe the phone overall is that it's like having a small powerful computer in your pocket, fast, functional and pocketable. The Android OS works best when you have a gmail account as your primary email account. It downloads messages quickly. Gmail also uses your list of contacts as contacts for the phone. You can transfer your contacts from your old phone into the Droid 2 and it will populate in your gmail contact list. My friend just took my old Droid and transferred his yahoo contacts into it and it populated in gmail and he set up his yahoo account in the phone too, so he can work from both.
Overall, I really highly recommend the Droid 2. It has a learning curve if you're used to a Blackberry, but worth it in the end. Its a great daily phone with a nice camera and camcorder and excellent social capabilities. I find myself using the pc at home less because the Droid is so capable. Get it!!

Setting of init.ora file for 500 users

how to set diffrents parameters in init.ora file
for 500 user
(hybrid system)(oltp+dss)
thanks

Yeah, it depends and you will need to adjust thoses parameters during the "life" of the database.
I give you some of my thoughts (that's just thoughts, not a rule => there is no perfect rule) :
500 users = Unix box i guess so :
If MTS (dont think u need MTS for 500 users) => SGA = 75% of the RAM of the server
If NOT MTS (dedicated processes) => SGA = 50% of the RAM
Say 2GB of RAM on no MTS :
buffer cache = 900 MB
shared pool = 100MB to 200 MB
sort_area_size = 256KB
something like 50 to 100 RBS (depends on how many users are connected simultaneously)
for the users which will not do some OLTP operations, you should make few BIG RBS and assign their transactions to them. for thoses users, you probably need a bigger sort_area_size.

Sharing files for different users on same computer without duplicating

Newbie here, I got my 1st mac (in ten years) last week and have been really enjoying it. I set up 3 user's accounts and wanted to share files such as iphoto and itune for all users. So I put my pictures in the shared folder, however, when I opened iphoto in each user's account, I had to import all the photos for every user, which resulted in duplicated files on each user's folders. I have tens of thousands of photos and don't want redundant files eat up my hard drive space. For this reason I'm holding off sharing my itune files.
I'm wondering if there's a way to allow access for different users without making duplicates.
20 in. imac Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Preferably only admin can edit/import
Well this makes things very easy and is the way that iPhoto is intended to share. In your Admin account, go to iPhoto -> Preferences -> Sharing and enable Sharing. Note that you can share an entire library or just individual albums. Leave iPhoto running and use Fast-User Switching to move to the other Account(s). In Launch iPhoto and go to Preferences -> Sharing and enable 'Look for Shared Photos'. The main library will turn up in the Source (or left-hand) pane of the other iPhoto.
Remember that for this to work, the Admin account must be logged in and iPhoto must be running there.
I don't really care as long as there's no redundant files.
Define 'redundant'. You do realise that iPhoto is a database, with built-in image viewer, lightweight editor and version control. Version control means that if you modify a photo then iPhoto makes a copy, including the changes, and keeps the Original. This way you can always Revert to Original from the Photos menu. Many people switching to iPhoto are confused by this at first. If you don't want version control I strongly suggest using a different app. There a many, many image viewers for the Mac.
As to your point comment about One-Touch DVD. I'm not familiar with that piece of Software, but every DVD (and CD) that you burn is assembled on the HD first, then burned. That assembly is a cache file and should be trashed on completion.
As to disk space: you need to keep about 10 gigs of space on the Start-Up disk for Virtual memory, Temp files and other OS uses. If you do get an external at some point in the future it is possible to run both iPhoto and iTunes from it to free up space on the internal. Just check the help or post back to the relevant forum before moving them. It's not difficult, but there is a procedure that needs to be followed.

ESS Portal - Timesheet not displaying for one user

Hello, I have a user who has always been able to access their timesheet via the ESS Portal but now when he clicks on the link for his timesheet all that returns is a blank web page. There are no errors, and it's not a browser issue because no one else is experiencing this issue and we've tried various browsers, all with the same result.
We have single sign on set up for the ESS Portal, and there is a role assigned to the user in core for them to access their timesheet via the portal.
This role has not been changed, and if it was, it would seem that all users would have been affected.
Does anyone know what I can check on the backend (HR master data, payroll, etc.) that would effect the timesheet for a specific user?
As well, is there anything I should check on the portal for this user which would affect the timesheet being displayed?
Thank you.

1. Review if his timesheet is being generated in the back-end (transaction PT61). If the time statement is generated in this transaction, the problem lies in the portal display.
2. If the time statement is not generated in this transaction, run transaction PT_ERL00 to review if there are any time evaluation errors for this employee. This report will show all error messages generated for each personnel number.
3. After reviewing errors, grab hold of a time management consultant and have him/her run time evaluation for this employee. Repeat from step 1 again.
